Garage
My '06 Boxster had a new motor at 73,000 km in '12, and I purchased it at 83,000 km. The previous owner and Porsche split the cost, and then the owner turned around and bought a 911. Since I am planning to keep the car long term, this was not a negative from my viewpoint. So far no issues, but I would like to sort out some time when the engine was built and what model of bearing it has in it.

Did you get receipts of the work etc to confirm prior? This seller, who's a very honest sounding 66 year old Porsche aficionado from what it sounds like, said the car drives even better than before.
